Hi,
have found out that I have to use Sort instead of SortAscending which
excludes row 1 from sort.
Now works as I wanted using simply aTable.Sort ( haven't used parameters
since get error when trying, and default behaviour works fine)
Thanks again for the hints !

Thanks a lot.
Works fine.
But my tables that i want to mix up do not contain a header row. So I want
row 1 mixed as well. Have tried to set j to 1 in the for j=2 to i+1, but that
doesn't work. Row 1 still sticks to row 1.
How should I proceed ?
Many thanks ! That was fast and well done.

Running a macro containing the following code will sort the table in which
the selection is located in random order (assumes that row 1 is a header row
and is not included in the sort
Dim i As Long, j As Long
Dim atable As Table
Dim acol As Column
Set atable = Selection.Tables(1)
Set acol = atable.Columns.Add(BeforeColumn:=atable.Columns(1) )
i = atable.Rows.Count - 1
For j = 2 To i + 1
acol.Cells(j).Range.Text = (i * Rnd) + 1
Next
atable.SortAscending
atable.Columns(1).Delete

Hope this helps.
